Chelsea Crush Liverpool 2:0 To Keep Title Hopes Alive; Best Team Won - Mourinho

Chelsea defeats Liverpool and keeps title hopes alive.  Ba and Willian blow title race open after Gerrard slip.

Every single player in blue was magnificent out there today. It's very hard to single anyone out for praise as Blues earned a famous win at Anfield to end the Reds' 11-game winning streak and breathe life into their own hopes of winning the Premier League Title this season.

Jose Mourinho turns on cameraman who circled Torres before Stoke clash

Chelsea Boss, Jose Mourinho has openly admitted that  he was unhappy with a Sky Sports cameraman when he circled Fernando Torres before kick-off ahead of Chelsea's 3-0 victory over Stoke City.

While waiting on the pitch for the two captains to complete the pre-match coin toss, the cameraman moved in on Torres and concentrated his lens on the Spaniard's face until the signal came to leave the pitch.


Furious Mourinho was waiting for him on the touchline and made his feelings known. Afterwards, the Chelsea boss said: 'I think the cameraman can do good, professional work without (doing that), I cannot say the word (for what I think of it).

'I think it was unnecessary.'


Mourinho had insisted on Friday that Torres had a future at Stamford Bridge, despite having criticised the performance of his strikers in the wake of their 3-1 defeat at PSG on Wednesday.
